Prices change without notice. Treat these as what to ask about, not a quote.
Funded hours
In most cases, families can access up to 1140 hours of funded childcare per year, often referred to as 15 or 30 hours per week during term time.
Worth knowing. At Wildflower, we offer funded places on a stretched basis across the year, allowing families to use their entitlement more flexibly.

What it is like to attend
Children receive warm care and attention from their key person and settle in quickly when they first start. They happily arrive at this welcoming nursery to start their day. Staff are vigilant and keep children safe. They listen to children, and this helps children feel valued. Children have plenty of time to complete tasks and be imaginative.
The management team and staff have clear curriculum aims for all children. They know how to support the most-able children and those who have gaps in their learning. Staff focus on children's interests when planning for their next steps, and this helps children to be engaged and to progress in their learning. All children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and those who learn English as an additional language, make good progress from their starting points.
Staff plan exciting activities, and this helps children to naturally develop positive attitudes towards learning. Staff are positive role models and are clear about their expectations. Children understand the rules of the setting, show kindness and behave well. They develop skills, including independence, to help prepare them for the next stage in their learning. Children are physically active outdoors and learn how to keep themselves safe. They benefit from a healthy and nutritious diet. This promotes their good health.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- build on current support for less skilled staff to help them become confident teachers n provide consistent opportunities across the nursery for children who learn
English as an additional language, to help them hear and use their home language in their play and learning.

What to ask them
Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- How do you apply my funded hours? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Do you have a place for a child of my age now? Baby rooms fill first and waiting lists are common.
- Who would my child's key person be? And how long have the staff been there. No dataset holds this and it matters more than anything above.
- Can I visit at a busy time? Mid-morning on a weekday tells you far more than an empty room after hours.
